Dr. Wang uses advanced simulation tools and theoretical methods to study turbulent multiphase flows and transport in engineering applications and environmental processes. His research covers direct and large-eddy simulations of turbulence and particle-laden flows, modeling and parameterizations of dispersion and turbulent collision of inertial particles, and simulation of interfacial multiphase flows. He develops and applies Boltzmann-equation based kinetic schemes, pseudo-spectral, and finite-difference / finite-volume methods for a variety of applications, as well as their scalable implementations on parallel computers. Dr. Wang has published over 116 journal papers. He is a Fellow of American Physical Society and a Fellow of American Society of Mechanical Engineers.
